Vegan Banh Mi Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

1

Prepare the Tofu

Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into thin slices.

2

Marinate the Tofu

In a bowl, combine soy sauce and rice vinegar. Add the tofu slices and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.

3

Cook the Tofu

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tofu slices and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

4

Prepare the Vegetables

While the tofu is cooking, prepare the carrot, cucumber, and cilantro.

5

Assemble the Banh Mi

Slice the baguette in half lengthwise. Spread vegan mayonnaise on both sides, layer the cooked tofu, carrots, cucumbers, and cilantro. Drizzle with Sriracha and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

6

Serve

Close the baguette, cut into manageable pieces, and serve immediately.
